Chapter 189 Dinner
"The purpose of the small treasury is to enable us to carry out our work better. Our personal benefit is just two or three yuan more per month."
"That's it! I thought this warehouse was a separate small treasury for our department and did not participate in the unit's plans!" Li Wen suddenly realized that he was being narrow-minded.
The people of this era are still very united, very selfless, and very supportive of the country.
After Liu Xicai had packed up all the rabbits, the two of them returned to the unit together.
"Xiaowen, Lao Liu, the two heroes are here?" As soon as the two entered the office, they were surrounded by colleagues.
“Everybody sit down, everybody sit down!
Liu Xicai looked happy, raised his head, and pressed down slightly with his hands.
"Now, I would like to formally inform you that Comrade Li Wen's supplies have been delivered, and all comrades have a share." Liu Xicai cleared his throat and said.
"Very good!"
"Xiao Wen, you are so awesome!" Two of the temporary worker girls winked at Li Wen.
"Don't!"
Li Wen was still a child, but he couldn't stand the looks of these older girls.
After the heckling, everyone got into today's work.
"Xiao Wen, please copy these orders and follow me to interview customers this afternoon." Xie Fangfang handed over a dozen purchase orders to Li Wen.
"Okay, I understand, Sister Fang." Li Wen took the purchase order with a smile and began to copy it.
Printers are precious gadgets in this era, and ordinary organizations like them are not eligible to enjoy them.
Recently, most of Li Wen's work is copying orders and he is familiar with prices. He has become accustomed to it.
"I would like to inform you that braised rabbit meat is served in the canteen at noon. No food stamps are required for a 40 cent serving. If you need it, come and get the meal coupons." When the time came to get off work, Sun Lianying walked into the office with a small stack of meal coupons and said.
"oh!"
In an instant, the office was buzzing with excitement. I haven’t had a meal together for several months this year. I didn’t expect that today would be full of surprises.
"Section Chief, how many meal coupons can one person receive at most?" Tao Hong, the oldest person in the office, stood up and asked.
"Since rabbit meat is provided by our Purchasing Department, our comrades in the Purchasing Department can receive an extra portion. Regular workers can receive three portions, and temporary workers can receive two portions." Sun Lianying said with a smile.
"Really, that's great!" Tao Hong said in surprise.
Even though a serving of braised rabbit costs as much as 40 cents, rabbit is more difficult to cook and requires a lot of oil to cook.
Every time the work unit has a meal, the amount of meat given is always large, and no food stamps are required this time. This is a rare opportunity for supplementation, and no one is willing to miss it.
Of course, at every dinner there are also some temporary workers whose families are in financial difficulties who give up their qualifications, but they also get an unexpected windfall, that is, by selling their dinner qualifications.
"Sister Tao, come here." Sun Lianying waved to Tao Hong to go over and receive the meal coupon.
"Here are 35 meal coupons. Because Li Wen purchased the rabbit, the extra meal coupon is awarded to him." Sun Lianying explained to Tao Hong with a smile.
"Okay, I understand." Tao Hong smiled and nodded.
After Sun Lianying left, everyone surrounded Tao Hong.
"Sister Tao, let me see what the dinner coupon looks like?" Zheng Junyong jumped around the outside of the crowd with a playful smile.
"Okay, everyone, sit back down and I'll start handing out meal coupons." Tao Hong held the meal coupons tightly for fear of losing one.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
“Ding-deng-deng!”
A dozen people quickly returned to their seats.
After the meal coupons were distributed, everyone began to discuss how to use the meal coupons. Some were ready to take them back to their children and wives, some were ready to honor the elderly, and some were ready to curry favor with the person they liked.
Zheng Junyong and Li Hongtao were the latter. They sat together and kept mumbling about how to impress their sweetheart with a portion of braised rabbit meat, and they also made lewd smiles from time to time.
"Sister Fang, you have a large family, so I'll give you this meal coupon." Li Wen took out one of the three meal coupons and handed it to Xie Fangfang.
"Xiao Wen, why are you doing this for me? You can keep it for yourself. You can't take it home." Xie Fangfang quickly refused.
"Sister Fang, my home is 40 to 50 kilometers away from Chang'an. How can I have time?"
"You are my master, and I should show my respect to you." Li Wen scratched his head and said with a smile.
"Fangfang, go ahead! There's nothing awkward about being a filial disciple." Tao Hong said with a smile.
"Okay, thank you, Xiaowen." Xie Fangfang excitedly took the meal ticket.
"Xiao Wen, you still have two more! What to do with the other one? Should I sell it? If I sell it, I will give you two cents for each one." Tao Hong asked with a smile.
"Sister Tao, that won't work. I can still use the other one." Li Wen smiled and shook his head.
"Oh well!"
But before she could be disappointed, two temporary workers sold one of their meal coupons to Tao Hong, who instantly beamed with joy.
When the bell rang, everyone picked up their lunch boxes and rushed out of the office like crazy, running towards the canteen one by one.
The department store does not count the employees in the external stores. There are more than 70 people here in the headquarters. With so many people eating dozens of kilograms of rabbits together, one person cannot share much.
What's more, it's impossible for the company to feed all the rabbits to employees. There must be some reserved to entertain some leaders.
Everyone in the purchasing department knows the number of rabbits. If you have fast hands, you will get meat, and if you are slow, you will drink the soup, so they can run very fast.
Other departments were also moving very fast, but they didn't run away. But after seeing the actions of everyone in the purchasing department, they all started running too.
For a moment, the department store staged a 100-meter race involving dozens of people. Li Wen estimated that the salesperson on duty at noon would be mentally shattered when he found out.
"Master, help me make two portions of braised rabbit meat!" These are some lesbians.
"Lao Zhou, help me get two portions!" This is from my acquaintance with the canteen's cook.
"Uncle Zhou, help me get a job!" These are some temporary jobs.
"Zhou Datou, please slow down. If you hit so much, you can still have my share later." This is a tough guy who makes food.
Today, the employees in the purchasing department are ranked very high in the queue, which has a lot to do with their enthusiasm.
Li Wen took a lunch box and a large teapot and ordered a portion of rabbit meat each, and ordered four extra large steamed buns. He received a total of eighty cents and two meal tickets to buy the steamed buns.
To eat at the workplace, you must buy meal tickets in advance. Except for dinner parties, the canteen usually does not charge money.
Today's braised rabbit is cooked with seasonal potatoes and carrots. It is sprinkled with chopped green onion and looks delicious.
Li Wen was queuing at the back just now, and he could clearly hear the guys in front of him swallowing their saliva, and he was laughing in his heart, but he didn't express it.
Each portion of today's braised rabbit meat contains about three taels of rabbit meat. The portion is very generous. One portion with the soup definitely exceeds a pound.
Li Wen tasted it and found that the chef's craftsmanship in the cafeteria was excellent. It was much more delicious than the rabbit meat he made using technology and hard work.
Seeing his colleagues on the table next to him devouring their food one by one, Li Wen became hungry instantly and ate up all the braised rabbit meat in the big tea vat with the big steamed buns of Erhe Noodles.
"Beautiful!"
